Green Beans, Potatoes, and Even Tomatoes

A nice rhyming little jingle urging vegetable consumption.  It lists several kinds, reminds us of the valuable vitamins they contain, and declares that tomatoes are indeed veggies not fruits.  It defines a vegetable as a plant grown as food, but the designates those grown on trees as fruit. But are all fruits grown on trees? Not berries. But I don’t think strawberries count as a vegetable. Hm…  I was hoping for a little more discussion as to the characteristics defining the different food groups. It’s cute for what it is, but it’s not a necessary purchase.
